| Last Saturday morning as the fishing
tug was leaving the harbor, the owners,
Capt. Alfred Borkenhagen and brother,
sighted water-logged schooner, which
they succeeded in towing into this port.
The name of the vessel is the Ole Oleson.
She left Muskegon, Mich, on Thursday
afternoon with load of slabs, bound
for Milwaukee. While in mid-lake she
sprung leak and became unmanagable.
The crew, consisting of the captain and
two sailors, succeeded in reaching Mil
waukee in the vessels yawl ON Friday
morning, after battling with the waves
and the elements for FIVE hours. The
vessel and cargo is said to be worth
about 5000. The schooner is not badly
injured, and few days in a dry dock
will put her in good condition. Capt.
Borkenhagen has lien on the disabled
craft for salvage, but whether or not he
will have to 60 into Pm admiralty court
to get it is not decided. The schooner
is owned by Mr.. John Savelin, of Mil
waukee.
Miss Agnes Tobin, daughter of Mr..
Patrick Tobin, ST., of Pleasant Prairie,
was taken sick with vomiting at Col.
Griffith's residence on Saturday evening.
She remained there during the night,
and, feeling somewhat better on Sunday,
rode out to her home, about seven miles
from the city. Monday she was able to
sit up. Her parents, thinking she was
only suffering from slight illness, did
not send for a doctor until Tuesday after
noon, when she began to fail rapidly. |
Then messenger was sent to Spring |
Bluff to telegraph for DIR. Farr, and when |
the doctor got there he was met at the |
gate and told that the girl had just died. |
From what the doctor learned of the |
symptoms of her sickness, he is of the
opinion that she died from cerebro-spinal- |
meningitis. The deceased was bright,
vivacious young lady, and favorite
with all who knew her. He age was
81 years ard Is days. Her parents
have the sympathy of the commu-
nifty in their affection. Her funeral ser.
vices were held at St. James church yes
terday morning and were largely at
tended.
